They're not doing you a favor by financing thru Mazda. The $1000 you save initially on the sale price is made up for in the financing. See for yourself. A person with good credit should be getting a rate in the 6.5-6.75% range. Whats the rate if financed thru Mazda?---->7.99% and up

675 is below average.... that could be why the rate is no bueno.
Dont buy the car at sticker price, buy it at dealer invoice - all rebates...

I got a financing rate of 1.9% for 4 years. But I'm in Ontario so I'm still getting screwed by the tax and the higher Canadian price for the same vehicle.

Won't the bank charge you a higher rate for refinancing than buying the new car? New vs. used rates can differ by a full point easily. If you're refinancing will the bank still give you the new car rate?
You'd probably still come out ahead by taking the $1000 + refinance but not by as much.

When the first bill comes from MAC that's when i pay the whole thing off with the refinance right? Should i hide the fact that I plan on doing this from the dealer? For $500 i wasn't going to bother with MAC but now that it's $1000 i will.
Sorry I have so many questions. I've never financed anything before, and this finance then immediately refinance is a little confusing. How much interest extra interest will I end up paying mazda for one month considering the rate differences?

My dealership didn't care if I refinanced after and I did not hide that I refinanced with my credit union.
To calculate how much extra interest, try this:

I'm pretty sure it won't be more than 50 bucks or so difference.
